Makeup for downturned eyes
Eyeshadow: Blend crease color up and out at 45° from the outer third — never follow the downward line.
Liner: Stop your liner before the outer corner and kick the wing upward from there; skip lower-lid liner.
Lashes: Concentrate curl and volume at the center-to-outer top lashes for lift.
